Very slow
I felt Tina was overreacting. I can understand her loss but her reactions are over exaggerated. The book is so slow. The same emotional monologues again and again and again.

Amazing read.
Very gripping story. Couldn’t keep the book down once I started reading it. Love to read natasha anders books. Waiting for the Libby and Greyson’s story.

Mind numbingly boring and slow paced
I struggled to read this book book due to the slow pace, boring characters and predictable storyline with no twists or surprises. Since I never leave things halfway I tortured myself and completed it.

Boring and and a drag!!
This book was so so boring and dragging its feet to get finished.....the writer needs to get a better grip on herself and need to keep the story interesting.She could have finished both the story 1 and story 2 in half the length of one to keep it interesting.....i had to toss the second one midway as it kept on repeating everything all the way....

Libby and Harris
Read this a while ago and wanted a reread. I enjoyed this story about a second change after a horrific moment.You haveLibby who has a massive crush on Harris and he her but he's older and friends with her brother. At a party he finally takes a chance but two stars drug his drink and talk garbage about Libby because she's not a size two. Of course she takes it hated, he was the only one to see her, he family doesn't see the real Libby and only criticize her every chance they get.Harris only recalls certain moments in flash backs and gets the just of it. He's horrified and is very apologetic but the damage is done.Years later there's lots of regret and missed communication between the two and once they get through and talk it opens the flood gates. Truths come out on both ends and lots of pent up hurt boils over. They both still love each other but to much has happened.. Or has it.Great emotional read, loved it!!

Oh my heart!!
Anders has done it again! Blown me away with her exceptional storytelling and kept me glued to the pages with her addictive writing style. She reminded me just why she’s one of my all times favourite romance authors!More Than Anything follows Tina and Harris, childhood friends who grew estranged after the eventful night of Harris’s twentieth birthday. Tina does everything to avoid Harris despite his attempts to apologize, and succeeds for ten years. But when her friend Libby separates from her husband, Tina accompanies her to a small town and decides takes over a restaurant, much her family’s disappointment. Libby’s husband, Greyson, heads to the small town to win her back. It doesn’t help that he brings his brother along, who also happens to be Harris. And now Tina finds she cannot avoid Harris, nor continue keeping the secret she had held onto for ten years.Anders takes you on such an emotional journey. I find myself smiling, near tears, and falling in love right alongside her characters. She writes what seems like such a complicated plot in a simple and easy to read style and like I’ve already said, it’s addicting and brilliant storytelling.I did find Tina’s treatment of Harris earlier on frustrating and a tad ridiculous (right along with him), but as I read more and learned more, I started to see where that behaviour was coming from. Her actions became understandable. I loved her bravery, her kindness, her unwillingness to give up no matter what life threw at her. She had faced horrible things on her own and she came out with the ability to still find joy in life and that’s commendable.Harris isn’t the usual Anders’ hero (his brother Greyson, on the other hand, fits the mould perfectly), but that didn’t make me love him any less. In fact, my heart broke for him. He was completely clueless and still trying to make amends. I just loved him so much! How respectful and cautious he was towards her. How he was always trying to do right by her, even at the cost of his own happiness. I really felt his pain, and understood his doubts and concerns.I also had to mention that I loved what Anders did with Tina’s earring/Harris’s pendant. It was such a simple yet powerful thing. And added so much to the story.It was wonderful seeing the McGregor sisters again from Anders’ other series.Libby and Greyson were awesome too! And I simply cannot wait to see how their story unfolds in the next book. Which I am so reading next!

A very emotional story
As always Natasha Anders has provided a book that is loaded with emotion. Tina has always had a difficult life, with three older brothers who criticise her all the time, and a mother who cannot bear having an overweight daughter and constantly remarks about it. She is sensitive about her weight, and keeps very much to herself, she only has one friend, Libby, both of them outcasts at school. When she is eighteen she is invited to a birthday party to celebrate the twentieth birthday of Harrison and Greyson Chapman, the sons of wealthy parents who are friends of her own parents. She has always liked Harris from afar, she is one of the few people who who can tell the twins apart. When he asks her to dance she is over the moon! She ends up going to bed with him, and afterwards she hears his friends talking to him - it appears it was all done for a bet. Her life in tatters, she runs away from the party. She wasn’t aware that his drink had been spiked; he had liked her for a long time and would never have agreed to take the bet if he had been sober.Shortly afterwards Tina goes abroad for a year. When she comes back she is more uptight than ever. She tries various jobs but fails at everything, giving her mother and brothers even more to criticise her about. She meets Harris at various functions she has to attend, and he always invites her out to dinner, tries to engage with her, but she always refuses to have anything to do with him.Then Libby is in labour, and calls Tina to come. Libby has married Greyson, but he is very aloof, and despite her reminding the baby is coming he has gone off on a business trip. When he arrives after his daughter is born he denies being the father, he accuses Harris of that role! Libby is very distressed and decides to leave him, and wants to go back to where she used to work as a pastry chef, Tina agrees to drive her. They drive hundreds of miles to Riversend, a small town in the Western Cape.Tina ends up buying a restaurant and employing Libby as head chef. Her family are horrified, this time when she fails she will have employees to worry about! And the first couple of weeks after opening the prospects look decidedly rocky! Then Harris and Greyson arrive, Greyson has realised he has been a fool and wants his family back, and Harris ostensibly wants to look out for Libby. It is a small town, very few places to stay and the brothers end up with a three month lease on the other half of the house where Tina is renting. Then the story really begins, Tina can no longer avoid Harris, and they slowly begin to talk about what happened. Harris really hopes that she can forgive him, and they can have a proper relationship, complete with happy ever after. Sadly that doesn’t seem at all possible when he discovers the fallout from their night together. Greyson is not having better luck with Libby, she allows him to bond with his daughter, but is determined to divorce him.This is very much a page-turner, I read it very quickly, in lees than a day. Ms. Anders stories are always tense and emotional, and whilst you may not agree with the way the people act you can always understand why they are like they are, and want things to turn out well for them. Even when you don’t like a character they are always believable. Very well worth reading.
